What? No free will? Karma and Newton's Third Law. Law of action/reaction. "I am a determinist. As such, I do not believe in free will. The Jews believe in free will. They believe that man shapes his own life. I reject that doctrine philosophically. In that respect I am not a Jew. I am Oriental by blood." - Albert Einstein, interview with G. S. Viereck, 'What Life Means To Einstein', Saturday Evening Post,October 26, 1929 "I do not believe in freedom of will. Schopenhauer's words, "Man can indeed do what he wants, but he cannot want what he wants", accompany me in all life situations and console me in my dealings with people, even those that are really painful to me. This recognition of the unfreedom of the will protects me from taking myself and my fellow men too seriously as acting and judging individuals and losing good humor." - Albert Einstein "As regards the freedom of the will, if it were the case that the will manifested itself in a single act alone, it would be a free act. But the will manifests itself in a course of life, that is to say, in a series of acts. Every one of these acts, therefore, is determined as a part of a complete whole, and cannot happen otherwise than it does happen. On the other hand, the whole series is free; it is simply the manifestation of an individualized will. Man can do what he wills but he cannot will what he wills." - Arthur Schopenhauer "We shall leave this world as foolish and as wicked as we found it on our arrival." - Voltaire
Mr. Arthur M young rich experience+ research on the concepts of determinism, free will, uncertainty, intuition gives new dimension.
Total respect and love for Arthur, and astrology. We are a special breed. What a pleasure.
@9:23 "We even get our meaning of the word "right" from that angle" absolutely mind blowing.
Great video.! Enjoyed it very much! Thank you!
I love the sincerity and clarity of both men here.

Thank you for doing this. I think it would be nice if there’s a Facebook page for us to discuss and expand the topics.
